B&T APC223 BT-36051

APC223 - ADVANCED PRACTICAL CARBINE: Originally designed to meet the current needs of Police and Military forces worldwide. It has also been fine-tuned for the desires of today’s sport shooters. The APC223 is a rugged but lightweight carbine in .223 Rem., perfect for action shooting disciplines like IPSC as well as target shooting, plinking and hunting. Hydraulic Buffer (Inside): This feature does much to reduce felt recoil, improve accuracy for follow up shots, eliminates bolt bounce, protects optics and reduces wear and tear on the receiver. A scope with a 1 to 6 magnification like the Kahles K16i solidly mounted with a B&T mount is perfect for fast and accurate target acquisition and engagement at distances up to 300 Meters (optional accessories). The “European Style” rotating lever 2-position ambidextrous safety provides the user easy tactile selection of safe and fire mode. The positive lock folding stock can be quickly deployed in one swift motion, reducing the length of the APC by 280mm. It can be extracted by 60 mm. A clamp on cheek piece gives 12 mm extra height if need due to special scope mounts (optional accessories). Pistol Grip: Perfect angle for fast target acquistion of any size hands. It is complete with an integrated storage compartment for lens caps, cleaning kit or spare batteries. The two stage trigger provides a very crisp reset for quick follow up shots. Reversible Charging Handle: Fully ambidextrous to accommodate any shooter, regardless of previous training. The Picatinny Rail (aka NATO Accessory Rail) is machined and integrated into the upper receiver as well as the handguard, resulting in perfect alignment for outstanding accuracy. The specially designed compensator reduces the already low recoil of the APC223, allowing for fast follow up shots. The hammer forged barrel is designed for optimal transitional ballistics and long barrel life. This 1 in 7” twist rate is the best all-around for many different loads and bullet weights. Picatinny Rails mounted on both sides for use with any accessories. Comes with rubber inlays for enhanced gripping. Picatinny Rail for mounting an optional vertical foregrip to enhance handling and ergonomics. The Quick Detachable Vertical Foregrip provides a stable grip for the forehand, the built in quickly extractable bipod is perfect for longer distance prone shooting (optional accessory). Ambidextrous Bolt Release: Enables any operator to perform a reload in a safe and rapid manner. Ambidextrous Magazine Catch Fully ambidextrous to accommodate any shooter, regardless of previous training. Reliable Magazines: Accepts standard NATO STANAG (M16/M4 type) magazines, the APC223 is delivered with two 30-round state-ofthe-art polymer magazines. The APC223 produces excellent accuracy. The precision from a supported position can put all the rounds of a five-round test group into the 9 ring circle at 100 meters. That is a group of about 28 mm (1.1 Inch) and is more than sufficient for any normal dynamic competition.
